Ah winter.  What would we do without it?  I’m not sure, but I’d love to find out. Another week; another 18 inches of snow.  And it’s only mid February, so it’s a long time till spring.

Perhaps you think I’m joking?  Here was the view from our upstairs window after this week’s storm.

But at least it’s good for skating.  Our neigbour built a rink in the back yard.

It’s good for hockey, but the snow banks are so high that it’s also great for tobogganing.

… especially if you toboggan right off the top of the shed.

And that is exactly what they did.  Oh to be a kid again.

Why am I telling you this? Because tomorrow we’re off to Panama for a week in the sun.  I’ll try to post some pictures, once I get warm.
